Testing the modem
Check the functionality of the Trust 56K V92 External Modem, before you will use the modem. You can do
this by using the diagnostics of the serial modem. Follow the steps below for testing the functionality:
1. Go to ‘Start – Settings – Configuration screen’ and double-click the icon ‘Modems’.
2. Select the tab sheet ‘Diagnostics’ and then select the COM port with ‘Trust 56K V92 External Modem’.
3. Click on the button ‘More information...’. If the communication between your modem and your computer
is good, you will now see some information regarding the modem.
4.3 Internet and e-mail
In order to establish an Internet connection and / or create an e-mail account, you must register with an
Internet provider (ISP = Internet Service Provider). This ISP will give you the information you need to get
access to the Internet.
Some Internet providers will provide you with a complete software package, which will automatically prepare
your system for Internet access.
You can also use an ‘Internet Wizard’ in Windows, which will take you through the process of establishing
Internet access step by step. Please see the Windows help function for more comprehensive information.
Note:
If the Internet connection is slow, call again. In many areas, the quality of the telephone lines is
not very high, so that maximum communication with your ISP may not be possible at times.
